Steps :
Chicken :
§    Put oil in a pan and sauté garlic and onion for 2 minutes. Add chicken and sauté until cooked but tender.
§    Add bell peppers and carrots and sauté for 2 minutes.
§    Add the chicken bouillon cube, dissolved in water.
§    Bring to a boil and add the potatoes, salt, pepper, and cover.
§    Simmer over medium-low heat until the potatoes are tender. If necessary, increase the heat to reduce the broth.
§    Halfway through cooking, add the herbs and curry powder.
§    Set aside to cool while preparing rotis.
Roti :
§    Sift flour and baking powder.
§    Mix flour, salt, garlic and baking powder.
§    Make a well in the middle, pour in water and oil and mix all ingredients. Knead at least 3 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
§    Cover the dough and let rest for 30 minutes.
§    Drop the dough on a floured surface, divide it into 10 or 12 balls.
§    Cover to prevent from drying .
§    Brush a little oil on a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
§    Lightly flour the work surface. Take a ball of dough, flatten it with the palm of the hand, turn it over and flatten again.
§    Roll out with a rolling pin and form a thin disk of 6 to 8 inches in diameter.
§    Cook about 1 minute on each side. Be careful not to overcook as the rotis should remain flexible and white.
§    Repeat until all the batter is done.
§    Stack rotis and cover with a cloth until the end of the baking.
Assembling chicken roti :
